The first two rounds are single elimination.

The finals are a three game series.

Er...what he said above.

Interesting.

Say they win wednesday, any guesses on when game 2 would be?

Like saturday maybe? :(

[spursincharge]

We would only host game 2 if Colorado loses in the 1st round. It's difficult to tell when the game would be.

spursincharge, do you work for the Toros? If so, I have a question maybe you can answer. Since the game will not be at the Austin Convention Center, will it still be broadcast on Futurecast? I'm not from Austin, but I am a Toros fan nonetheless.

Yes I do...send me that question in an email from the email I listed above so I can have it answered for you tomorrow morning

I understand it's a whole lot easier to schedule a game at Concordia, but I hope it doesn't turn into a bug hunt.

[ChumpDumper]

The new campus is out on 620 in far northwest Austin.

[spursincharge]

The new campus is out on 620 in far northwest Austin.

Used to be Schlumberger's campus, they sold the site to Concordia a couple of years ago. It's just north of the 2222/620 intersection.
